He most certainly is, I'd guess River folk, considering how much he travels, and explores, and braves out inthe world. OR he's just on an adventure, like Bilbo.
Amongst all the rubbish that pops up on our screens Malcom comes and brings a beautiful sense of peace with his relaxed nature and calm voice. Thank you God 🙏🙏🏴
Speaking of John Donne - one of my ancestors is Sir Nicholas Hilliard who was a painter in the court of Queen Elizabeth. He painted Donne, Philip Sidney, Walter Raleigh, and the Queen!
Dearest Sir: In these fractious times your calmness and kindness, your sense of joy and wonder, and your love for all humankind pour forth as a balm on my soul. Bless you. (And, if you must, point my praise away from yourself and toward heaven. Isn't that what the world's humble treasures do?)
I would love a charity idea - you get to be the person knocking the door and listening to Malcolm for a donation to charity. How wonderful that would be
is there a greater man than this man known as Mr Guite? By what charm was Belfast blessed to be visited by this reverend and Tolkein disciple? Friend of us all, Malcolm. May you be eternally inspired to share your words with us on UA-cam dear friend
With respect, I hate to break this news to you, and there is no real easy way to say it, and I hope it doesn’t come as too much of a surprise, but UA-cam is a temporal platform, not an eternal one 🤦♂️
@johnjsteinbeck, relax, a believer’s life can experience this moment eternally, what do you gain by merely dissolving the reality by claiming “respect” and completely miss the value, because you interjected your “righteous” pious technical examination that seeks to correct by taking a context to a miserable fault. Here’s a thought… enjoy your rebuke, now how do you like your self righteousness comment? When you answer make sure your in front of a mirror and in case you forgot Open your eyes and pull the plank out.
Yes! He’s such a beautiful man, soul! I recently listened to a talk where he mentioned getting an emergency phone call from a colleague at the college while accompanying his Dad to a funeral and he had to leave the funeral. He rushed off to try and help a suicidal student from jumping off a ledge. 😢 He was successful. I can’t think of a better person to be able to shed hope on someone who is struggling in this world. I just love him! Also, in this same story he spoke of a poem he wrote for his dear friend that stayed by his Dads side at the funeral when he had to leave. The whole talk was amazing!
While I don't believe in God, I love your content. It's extremely nice in this hectic world to rest, and open up your mind to a bit of beauty and spirituality. Thank you very much indeed, sir
I’m lucky enough to be visiting Belfast from Australia very soon, so how amazing is it to open up UA-cam and find that Malcolm has gone on ahead of me and posted this video (almost as a sort of encouragement)! Thank you Malcolm!
Imagine just being able to be in the presence of such vintage, valuable books. The pristine shelves, the lovely tables, I just want to spend an entire evening having coffee and reading in this cozy library
When I Survey is one of my favorite hymns. Thank you for discussing the hymn today. I was at the Getty Sing 2024 in Nashville and sang in the choir. Also, I interrupted you on Monday morning as you were checking in and asked if you would autograph my copy of your wonderful book, David's Crown. You graciously agreed, for which I extend great thanks. It was an honor to meet you for that brief encounter and a great joy to hear you read your poems in the sessions. You are a treasure. God bless and keep you. Merry Hanning
It's a delight to sit and learn so much of the great poets, and poetry itself, from a humble master like yourself. And I love your poem for Isaac Watts!
Malcolm, thank you for coming to Belfast ! ! I was blessed to be able to hear you speak at the Communion service in the church that CS Lewis was connected to. I was so encouraged by the thought of how every day we are growing spiritually younger, moving West to East, every day a day closer to the day of salvation and the "Good Morning ! " when death is swallowed up !
Wonderful! I was overjoyed to travel with my choir not long ago to sing two Masses in the Anglican Ordinariate tradition - one of our communion hymns was When I Survey the Wondrous Cross (Rockingham tune), and it had such a beautiful descant on the final verse. Hearing your reflection on it was inspiring! God keep you, Malcolm!
This was truly a wonderful showing Malcolm! You are so kind to share it, with your readings adding much love and admiration to each word. I know someone who would love this video more than I have!
That library reminds me of the rare book room at Davidson college, where my wrestling team mates and I partook in evening study hall. It sounds odd but you bring to mind all of my favorite teachers from my boarding school days, an episcopal school as it were. I sincerely hope to meet you one day and share a pipe as well as our faith.
Malcolm, would you consider doing a piece on Tolkien's essay On Fairy Stories? It would be fascinating to hear your interpretation of Tolkien's theory on imagination and the suspension of disbelief.
That chair reminds me of a scene in one of my favorite films, where King Brian king of all the leprechauns tells Darby O'Gill, by all the goats in Derry do you think I'd sit on a Spanish throne!
Naturally I wondered if you included a visit to CSL sites during your time in Belfast and if there might even by some video thereof if so. Looking forward to a visit about Samuel Palmer sometime!
You may have done a spell on it already, but I think another spell in the library on when Eustace is turned back into a boy in Voyage of the Dawn Treader would be lovely. It’s such a profound picture of how Jesus tears off our old selves and clothes us in new righteousness.
Malcolm, I love watching and listening to you...if I was a casting Director with influence...I'd cast you not only in the Harry Potter franchise but also Lord of the Rings....you'd fit right in just as you are...God bless you.
thank you so much for sharing with us! have you ever had the opportunity to watch any of John Butler's videos? it would be interesting to hear what your thoughts on his perspectives are
I know they say Gandalf and Bombadil had a 2 year chat before the Grey Havens, though I believe that a conversation between you and Tolkien would rival this
Dear Mr. Guite, do you feel that the text of Shakepeare’s plays in “The Arden Shakespeare Third Series Complete Works” is a preferred version? I am looking at the Folio Society’s beautiful new complete works edition, and am not sure about the version of text which they have selected, as I’d really like to re-read a number of plays. I enjoy your time shared here immensely. Thank you. Best, Liz
Malcom, which version of the King James Bible is the most beautiful, in terms of the use of language I always hear people talking about it (Stephen Fry, Hitchens ect) but there’s many versions. Which one (year) is the famous one?
For anyone not familiar with the famous hymn and tune that Malcolm is referring to, please listen to Kings College Choir singing variations on it ua-cam.com/video/mDkuxEIcpdI/v-deo.html&ab_channel=drwestbury
Malcolm, are there any provisional publication dates for your Arthurian books? Will they be released individually over a number of years, or as a series? Thank you!
I will never be thoroughly convinced that Malcom Guite isn't secretly a hobbit
He most certainly is, I'd guess River folk, considering how much he travels, and explores, and braves out inthe world. OR he's just on an adventure, like Bilbo.
Secretly?
😂😂😂😍
Or a Wizard.
Perhaps we need to take a look and see if he has oversized hairy feet? 😉
Amongst all the rubbish that pops up on our screens Malcom comes and brings a beautiful sense of peace with his relaxed nature and calm voice. Thank you God 🙏🙏🏴
Speaking of John Donne - one of my ancestors is Sir Nicholas Hilliard who was a painter in the court of Queen Elizabeth. He painted Donne, Philip Sidney, Walter Raleigh, and the Queen!
Love having glimpses into these beautiful libraries!
This man is a treasure. He must be protected at all costs.

Hi Malcolm! Your enthusiasm inspires me indeed.

What a beautiful Sonnet, thank you for making it public for all of us to enjoy.
It's funny because I walk past this place every day and I never thought of what was inside!
It’s always such a wonderful treat to see you and hear what you have to say. Cheers my friend.
I find Malcolm’s videos to be a comforting oasis in a turbulent and noisy world.
Thank you for posting this you have been making my days better than better with all of your work and posts Just love to say thank you
Imagine just being able to be in the presence of such vintage, valuable books. The pristine shelves, the lovely tables, I just want to spend an entire evening having coffee and reading in this cozy library
Leave the coffee outside...spillages on valuable and beautiful old books cause dreadful damage.

This was wonderful! I am always so happy to see a new video from Malcolm pop up in my video feed!
Welcome to Belfast Malcolm. I hope you enjoy your stay!
If they ever remake the movie "the pagemaster" this dude needs to be in it
The best notification on UA-cam yet again!!! What a way to spend the morning!!
What a gift 📚 a wonderful tour.
Welcome to Belfast 🙂 and God bless you Malcolm.
Thanks for the upload Malcolm, hope you enjoy your time in my hometown
It's a delight to sit and learn so much of the great poets, and poetry itself, from a humble master like yourself. And I love your poem for Isaac Watts!
Watts’ words are a window into the Heavenly Realms! The Lamb reigns victorious! 😊❤️
Malcolm, thank you for coming to Belfast ! !
I was blessed to be able to hear you speak at the Communion service in the church that CS Lewis was connected to.
I was so encouraged by the thought of how every day we are growing spiritually younger, moving West to East, every day a day closer to the day of salvation and the "Good Morning ! " when death is swallowed up !
Ah, like Ramandu!

Charming. 🙏❤
I am honestly inspired by your content! TY!!!
Definitely needed this
What a pleasure just to be able to listen and to learn something
this is Bilbo in Rivendell, what a lovely library, thank you.
This library looks amazing! The first poem you read, and the one you wrote, were just wonderful, Malcolm!
WE GOT TO HEAR THE CAMERAMAN !!!! (I think it's the first time)
I suspect from the accent a local stand-in. The mystery remains!
Well done Sir, carry on.
I have to agree: When I Survey never fails to bring me back to the very essence of my faith in Jesus. Love so amazing....
That library reminds me of the rare book room at Davidson college, where my wrestling team mates and I partook in evening study hall. It sounds odd but you bring to mind all of my favorite teachers from my boarding school days, an episcopal school as it were. I sincerely hope to meet you one day and share a pipe as well as our faith.
Malcolm, would you consider doing a piece on Tolkien's essay On Fairy Stories? It would be fascinating to hear your interpretation of Tolkien's theory on imagination and the suspension of disbelief.
Beautiful! Thank you, Fr. Malcolm. Your words touched my heart.
That chair reminds me of a scene in one of my favorite films, where King Brian king of all the leprechauns tells Darby O'Gill, by all the goats in Derry do you think I'd sit on a Spanish throne!
Naturally I wondered if you included a visit to CSL sites during your time in Belfast and if there might even by some video thereof if so.
Looking forward to a visit about Samuel Palmer sometime!
Beautiful, always a pleasure
I have one of those Bell's Editions, Richard Savage, vol.2, with "The Wanderer" and "Progress of a Divine." Lovely series!
The late Sir John Betjeman stated the same, that Isaac Watts’ When I survey the wondrous cross’ was the greatest hymn in the English language.
i did not know of "when i survey the wounderous cross" or isaac watts till today. it is a beautiful hymm. thankyou.
You may have done a spell on it already, but I think another spell in the library on when Eustace is turned back into a boy in Voyage of the Dawn Treader would be lovely. It’s such a profound picture of how Jesus tears off our old selves and clothes us in new righteousness.
Oh I would be soooo at home there!
Love the Watts poem Malcolm.
nice and warm there with those steam radiators? looks wonderful!!
Beautiful!
Another lovely video, thank you!
Malcolm, I love watching and listening to you...if I was a casting Director with influence...I'd cast you not only in the Harry Potter franchise but also Lord of the Rings....you'd fit right in just as you are...God bless you.
More YTPC Team Freedom awesomeness! 😊😊😊😊😊
John Donne......one my first book reports, im an American, i was in the 6th grade......hah
The first one i did was on John Ronald Reuel Tolkien :)
this is crazy! i'm playing a show in belfast tomorrow, missed you by one day Malcolm haha
thank you so much for sharing with us! have you ever had the opportunity to watch any of John Butler's videos? it would be interesting to hear what your thoughts on his perspectives are
Malcolm seems to travel all over, he must fly via a giant eagle, i could'nt possibly see him on a aeroplane.
Wow.
Whilst I do enjoy your videos, it does make me laugh many who comment attempt to reflect your ability as a wordsmith!! 😂😂
I know they say Gandalf and Bombadil had a 2 year chat before the Grey Havens, though I believe that a conversation between you and Tolkien would rival this
Have you ever played Father Christmas? You would be interesting.

Spectacular! Col3_16 Eph5_19
I'm glad you survived the battle at Hogwarts!
💪🦅🙏

I hear my brother Stephen Knox gave you a copy of his new poetry book.Wt do you think?
Malcolm, are there any provisional publication dates for your Arthurian books? Will they be released individually over a number of years, or as a series?
Thank you!
A timely visit with a truly inspirational servant of Christ.
